Assumptions involved in the word Death

Obviously our ideas on death are influenced by our western metaphysical gaze. Let us look deeper into the issue, and analyze the assumptions that this group of whities is making when we talk about death

assumptions: time, life, beginnings and ends, somethingness to nothingness.

Lets try and think our way outside of death, by thinking our way outside of time. According to my physicist friend Mann, it is a scientific fact that time does not exist. Rather, it is a construct of the human mind that helps explain the world (why humans need to explain the world is beyond me). The human being has senses, and they use these senses to bring the outside world into their mind. The mind is the only playing field the human can operate with (the computer screen you are looking at exists only in your mind; nobody has access to the computer screen "in itself"). The outside universe is an eternal existing realm that has been around forever (the big bang is just a conspiracy theory). The universe has always been and will always be; the earth is only a hot piece of molten rock that somehow formed in the universe.

Lets take the optimistic young kid that believes that he will never die. Rather, he becomes like the universe (eternal and always having been). He abandons notions of time and decides to sit and play tonka trunks, in that moment, for eternity. That moment never ends. He plays with tonka trunks forever; continously dumping gravel to bring pleasure to imaginary school yard playgrounds. Unfortunately for the kid, the tonka truck becomes boring, and he eventually gets his mom to make him a grilled cheese. He had eternity in his hand, and he abandoned it for mere melted cheese! I curse time and its seductive partner: the grilling of cheese.
